Ant McMahon 5-1 Sean Croft
Ant McMahon proved too strong for Sean Croft in the opening match of The Masters.
Both players struggled to find their form but McMahon was able to make a few modest breaks to ease over the line. A 32 break from McMahon in frame 5 was the highest of the match and he will have to improve if he is going to trouble Adam Chester in the last 16.
